What are the 2 rubber pipes coming out of the left end of the plenum chamber???
Both of them on my 4.6 vouge look to be on there last legs and id like to know how important they are and if i should replace asap or if it can wait a while.

Are they not "Breather" pipes ?????........ NICE RUG by the way !!!

if it's the same as the disco 3.9 they are probably the vacuum lines for the brake servi and sommat else.. can't remember what and it's too dark to go looking.. they feed into metal pipe on the back of the engine bay on mine and it's a bit of a job to follow them all the way but one of them deff goes to the servo.. cos if you lose vacuum on your plenum you lose your brake servo and stopping becomes a bit HIT or aaaaaaggggg... if they are bad I would change them..

forgive my ignorance please.........
